Loggerhead Marinelife Center

At Loggerhead Marinelife Center (LMC) in Jupiter, Fl., it is said that “The turtles tell us the health of the ocean, and the ocean tells us the health of the planet.”

Since opening in 1989, LMC has promoted ocean conservation of the Loggerhead Sea Turtle (Caretta caretta) species through education, research, and rehabilitation. By documenting the day-to-day life at LMC, from routine treatments, examining and evaluating predated hatchlings, and even the release of sea turtle patients back to the ocean, this body of work dives beneath the surface and tells the story not only of what LMC does to help sea turtles but ultimately the health of the ocean and the planet.
